In some of his first action after undergoing Tommy John surgery, former Minor League Pitcher of the Year Brady Rodgers was optioned to the Minors after a disappointing Spring Training, allowing 15 hits and 5 runs in 8 innings.
He is being sent to Minor league Camp along with the injured Frances Martes, pitchers Erasmo Pinales, Jose Hernandez and Ryan Hartman, and catcher Lorenzo Quintana, all non-roster invitees.
